nvrPRovEMsNT 1N COMBINED DRAWER- PULL AND LABEL.

The Schedule referred to in these. Letters Patent and making part of thesame.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES H. ROBINSON, of Greenwich, inv the county ofWashington, and in the State of New York, have invented certain new anduseful Improvements in Combined Drawer-Pull and Label; and do herebydeclare that the ,following is a full, clear, and exact ldescriptionthereof, reference 'being had to the accompanying drawings, and to theletters of reference marked thereon, making a part of thisspecification.

The nature of my invention consists in the combi' nation of adrawer-pull and label, and in the arrangement of the devices hereafterset forth and explained.

Figurel is a front view of 'my invention.

IFigure 2 is a rear view of the same.

Figure -3 is aisection view of the same'.

Letter A represents a curved vmetal plate, in the ce of which there iscut an opening, through which Jthe label or tablet B is shown. .The endsoi' this plate lare turned at right angles to the face, and are made toslant towards the top, as seen in fig. 3, so that there will be roomenough between the bottom edge and drawer to insert the fingers, so thatit can be used as a drawer-pull or knob.

Upon the back of the plate A there vis a number of small hooks orcatches D, which form a bed in which the label B rests. This label maybe made of glass, metal, or any suitable substance, and can .be

raised up above the hooks and removed without taking o'i the plate A.

I'n case the label should be made of glass, the plate C is placed backof it, so as to serve as a guard. This plate is intended to be entirelyseparate from the plate A, and isv secured in place by the screws whichfastenv the front plate.V There is a slot cut in the lower-edgev of thisguard, extending upward,vso that the ngers can grasp hold of the labelboth in front and behind,

so that it can be raised out of the hooks, in order t6- be removed. Y

When the label `or tablet is formed of metal, or some substance noteasily broken, this guard canbe dispensed with.

Having thus described my invention,

-What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,'is-` 1. Theslotted plate .when used as aprotection for the label, substantially asset forth and described. 2. The plates A and G, and label B, whencombined so as to form a combined drawer-pull and label, sub` stantiallyas specified. Y i

In testimony that I claim .the foregoing, I have hereunto'set my hand,this 12th day of May, 1869.
